Darius Rucker revealed in a recent interview that a new song, in collaboration with Lady A, will be released this summer.

“I have a new single coming out this summer with Lady A. I’m really excited and can’t wait for people to hear it,” the Hootie & the Blowfish singer said in a Grand Ole Opry interview.

“It’s a lot of fun,” according to the Opry member and Grammy award-winner.

When asked how he stayed busy during the last few months of quarantine, Rucker replied, “Mostly doing a lot of songwriting, actually tons of writing – being around the house, doing stuff around the house that I never get time for. And playing golf when the course is open”.

Rucker described his experience during the lockdown as “crazy and tough.” He said he missed playing music a lot.

“I’ve been spending a lot of time and getting closer with the kids. I haven’t been home this long since I was in college,” he added.

The rapid-fire question round was followed by a special live show on Circle TV with Clint Black and host Bobby Bones.

Country trio Lady Antebellum changed their name to Lady A earlier this month, evoking protest from a blues singer also named Lady A.
